Yes, this is a dialogue that has run through my mind between me and myself. Labels: school
I'm in trouble!
Why?
Because we got back our progress report, and I have to get my parent's signature.
So why are you -me- in trouble?
Because when they see the grades, especially chem, bio and math, they're going to kill me.
Oh no! Are your parents that mean?
Well, I'm supposed to get 4 As for A levels. Such grades are unacceptable to them.
Why do they want you to get 4 As? So demanding!
Because you need 4 As at least to get into NUS medicine. Over 2000 people apply, and about 250 get in - it's hard to become a doctor!
So your parents want you to become a doctor and they're pushing you hard.
Er, no. I want to become a doctor. It's my own career ambition.
So it's YOU who wants you to be a doctor, not your parents.
Yes. I've wanted it for a long time, in fact.
So you need to get 4 As because that's necessary for entrance into medicine.
Yeah.
And your grades are horrible now, and you're afraid of what they'll say.
...Yeah.
So essentially, you don't want your parents to scold you for not achieving what's necessary for your own dream to come true, because you're just a lazy bum who hates studying?
... ... ... ...
Basically it's all your own fault. Hah. How pathetic of you.
......Bother it all.
No one asked you to become a doctor. You could just as easily have said you wanted to be a Primary School Math Teacher. Or an engineer.
Oh, shut up already.
